1.Triessence Croissant

Ingredients: 200 grams of refined flour, 450 grams of chilled water, 500 millilitres of milk, 100 grams of yeast, 300 grams of caster sugar, four teaspoons of salt, eight teaspoons of gluten, 10 teaspoons of improver, 10 teaspoons of butter, 250 grams of milk, half a gram of saffron, a pinch of cardamom, vanilla bean, 20 grams of corn flour, 50 grams of sugar, and 50 grams of yolk.

Start by combining the refined flour, yeast, caster sugar, salt, gluten, and improver in a large mixing bowl to make the dough for the croissants. Gradually add chilled water and milk, mixing until a dough forms. Knead until smooth and elastic, then flatten into a rectangle and add butter in the centre, folding and sealing the edges to encase the butter completely. Roll and fold the dough multiple times, chilling it for 30 minutes between each turn. After the final turn, chill for an hour before rolling out and cutting into triangles. Roll each triangle into a croissant shape and proof at room temperature until doubled in size for about 1-2 hours. Bake at 200°C for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and flaky. Now, prepare the saffron cardamom cream by infusing the milk with saffron, cardamom, and vanilla, then whisk with corn flour, sugar, and egg yolks. Cook until thickened, cool, and refrigerate before filling your baked croissant.
